    Do you or anyone here also experience the trump effect? Where there’s just so much head spinning chaos generated in the constant barrage of news you start to catch his dementia in forgetting names and words that were once so easy to grasp not even a yr ago?

      The human brain was not designed for the 24 hr news cycle. If you’re already organized in a movement try to focus energy there. People give back more than they get usually.

      If you’re not currently in a Rapid Response or Mutual Aid network feel free to reach out I’m happy to talk about resources.

      Also, if you’re not already, make time for loved ones and friends. Do activities with them and share the burden.
